FORT WALTON BEACH — Officials with the Panhandle Animal Welfare Society don’t know much about the dog or her 10 puppies that came in Wednesday. They don‘t know her name, what breed she is exactly or where she came from.

For now, the dog is going by the name ‘Mom’ and the 10 pups are still scurrying around with eyes shut and whimper anytime they feel disoriented in the cage they share with their mother.

The family of 11 was brought in to a Laurel Hill animal shelter Dec. 20 after the puppies were already born, according to Tricia Bryant, the director of the Humane Society and Adoption Center at PAWS.
